HOMELESS ON THANKSGIVING

Mineola, TX

It's that time of year and most people are thinking about what they want and shopping. This guy was sitting there just trying to make it to the next day. Instead of thinking of ourselves so much, why can't we reach out and help someone? Buy them a meal, etc. It should be the season of giving and not worrying about what you are getting.

When I visted the USA in 2009 a food queue outside a church was a real eye opener. It's got worse over here since then and the term 'food bank' has since become commonplace in the UK. A fine image.

Texas is a rich country, but it has the wrong goverment. his Mr. Perry doesn´t care, the whole system is broken. Just think what Obeamacare does, there needs to be a program alike for homeless people! My simple opinon and this is a great documentary shot, but a meal only would not help him much to get out of this misery! V.
